ulatiohs to our genial jeweler and his

We are indebted to our ex.Nasby,
C. NJ Simpson for copy Of the Pasa-
dena (Cal.) Star, which contains an
elaborate "write-up" of Pasadena.
From reading the paper We should
Judge that the Garden of Eden was a
bowling wilderness compared with
Southern California.
They do say that a certain gen.
tlemsn who is circulating LaHarpe
petitions secured the name of a colored
man who is a partial imbecile and who
is being supported by lola township,
on the representation that If the coun-
ty eeat was removed there would be
lots of work. Comments are uuneces-
sary.
Mrs. Nettie English aud Miss
Blanche Allen received" at the home
of the former on New Years day, and
made it exceedingly pleasant for those
who improved the opportunity to test
their hospitality. We know of at least
three gentlemen who tested it pretty
severely and who have nothing but
praise for it.

was loaned. d. C. Wood, H. a. Ew-
ing and J. w. Coutant obtained each !
500 at 40 per cent premium, and H.

The Association is in flourishing con- |
lition having now something over S.
BOO loaned out.
A hot flue set fire to some old rope |
and other refuse in the attic of Locke's |
wood and coal office last Saturday |
evening, and the entire building would |
doubtless have been destroyed If the
flames had not been accidentally dis
covered before they had got much |
Roadway. As it was no damage to
speak of was done.
We hope our country patrons will not
forget that our Farmers Column" is
. permanent feature Of the REGISTER
and is always at their disposal. A
who called on us Tuesday |
said that his brother had advertised |
some calves in this column land they |
went off like hot cakes" 1t pays to
be a subscriber to the REGISTER.
1t is a little singular, come to think |
Of it, that a paper that has such an
and unprincipled wretch |
for an editor as the REGISTER has Ito
take the word of its democratic cotem-
poraries) should have fifty per cent
more subscribers and twice as much |
patronage rs any other
paper in the county. 1t is singular.
The first of the series Of lectures an |
some time dgo for the benefit

speaker and those who attend his lec-
ture may count on being we'll enter
tained. The subject and further de-
tails will be given next week.
The REGISTER has nothing but COM
for the course of the Demo-
crat in regard to the county seat ques-
ton. We know that it was offered
money by the LaHarpe advocates to |
come out in favor of that town and we
know that it refused it. The refusal
Of the bride is vastly more to the cred |
It of the Democrat than is the offering |
Of it to the credit of those who did so.
The scheme for the extension of the |
Carriage Work is being actively can
vassed and the plan alluded to several !
weeks ago in the REGISTER is nearly
certain to be carried out. In addition
to this arrangements are in fair wav /
to be consumated for the location here
Of another extensive enterprise. the
details of which we are not yet at iber-
" to give. lola is bound to boom in
the spring.
